recorders . devices . static . sound maps

mapping imaginary sounds

and decoding shadows and echoes

the stories once told

sound maps in the studio

recording silent walls

and taking notes of 

secret languages

signals and wires

listening devices

the people we wish we knew

but never did

 

silence in the void . static

the absence of sound

the void

a room behind the wall

translating static and echoes

sound maps . static

paint and ink on gelatin silver prints

ela orleans . light at dawn

 

go back to your dream . the hidden sea

go back to your dream

your not here

you did not disappear

stories of a strange day

imaginary communication

 paint, gouache, gesso on paper

standing at the edge of the dark sea

i prefer the sea

in an empty landscape

thoughts from inside the walls

thoughts from inside the walls

of an old apartment 

the pipes and papers walls

the telephone lines

 

I'm a ghost

(gouache ink paint on gelatin silver print)

the ghosts of things

when one closes their eyes

the color of eigengrau

a little like the sound

of the void or static of in-between

 haunting moments like a time-lapse

blurred memories

of things before things

this short beautiful video is

constant reference somewhere in the back of my mind
